STUNT ROCK, DIRECTOR: BRIAN TRENCHARD-SMITH, AUSTRALIA, 1978

Unfathomably entertaining, this cinematic abomination follows the weak story of Australian stuntman Grant Page, who comes to LA to advise the ’70s art rock/butt rock band Sorcery (also playing themselves) on their rock opera duel between the King of the Wizards and the Prince of Darkness. Featuring dead serious onstage antics presaging SPINAL TAP, interwoven with unconnected harrowing stunts from Page, this jaw-dropping hybrid is the perfect pairing for a pint or two. (86 min)
